Understanding Facebook's Event ID and Deduplication

[@ibundler]

does this will duplicate the purchase event leading to pay more than one time per purchase?

[@Vision-Labs]

@@ibundler if the ids match it will deduplicate

@@Vision-Labs Thank you!

Hi there, I've managed to set this up, and I'm passing the pageview events from both server & website. They both have the same event ID but they're not deduplicating, any idea why?

[@Vision-Labs]

If the events have the same event_name and the same event_id then it should deduplicate. Feel free to send us an email is something isn't working right.

how do I stop sending events like scroll and select_item and user_engagement with this setup? I don't need those sent to pixel but they're all coming in under the Setup Method of Manual Setup now. Thanks!

YoThe will need to filter either out the events you don’t want or Include just the events you want

Hi! Is it normal for the pageview to be received by the browser and not by the server?

[@Vision-Labs]

It depends... you will only see the server events inside of test events if you have the test event code defined in the request. Obviously you would have to have the pageview set up to send data to your server as well and then on to Facebook. Feel free to shoot us an email if you need additional help.

Hey Stockton, great video! I'm facing an issue after having set up my server side tracking. Everything works fine when the event is sent from both the browser and the server. However, when the events are sent only from the server side they are getting deduplicated when they're not supposed to. May I know what might be causing this?

[@Vision-Labs]

Hi there! What does your set up look like? Are you sending event_id's still with just server-side? If you go and opt-in to any of our stuff and then reply with some more details, we'd be happy to take a look with you. - Stockton

I saw you using[store user date] tag How do I put the fbp fbc parameter in the user date So Facebook can get my user data

[@Vision-Labs]

The FBP and FBC cookies don't need to be stored or managed separately. Both the pixel and conversions API will pick up on those values for you. Storing the user data is more for storing the name, email, etc. So that once it's been captured once, it can be used for future events.
